Halifax's Best Thai Food Showdown
Based on public voting via The Coast: 🥇 Gold: Cha Baa Thai 🥈 Silver: Talay Thai 🥉 Bronze: Blue Elephant 🍜 My Personal Taste Test 🥈 Talay Thai (My #1 Pick!) ✅ Pros: Their curries are slightly sweeter than others – perfect if you dislike overpowering spice! Rice is INCLUDED (unlike the other two – no sneaky extra charges!). Most affordable of the three. Spacious, modern interior (biggest seating area). ❌ Con: Thai iced tea was just okay. 🥉 Blue Elephant ✅ Pros: Best ambiance – moody lighting, great for dates. Spiciest curries (ideal for heat lovers!). Eggplant dishes are next-level (but quality can vary… luck of the draw!). Generous portions. ❌ Cons: Fried chicken wings were… fine? Nothing special. 🥇 Cha Baa Thai ✅ Pros: Pad Thai gets rave reviews on Reddit for authenticity. Good lunch specials (budget-friendly!). ❌ Cons: Curry portions in the lunch set were tiny (likely bigger if ordered à la carte). 🏆 Final Verdict For flavor + value: Talay Thai 👑 For spice + vibe: Blue Elephant 🔥 For quick lunches: Cha Baa 🍱 #HalifaxThai #HalifaxFoodie #NovaScotiaEats
